With 20 dedicated work berths for vessels up to 20m and award-winning expertise on site, we make maintenance easy — so you can get back on the water sooner.

"It’s no wonder you won boat yard of the year...

...The service and ease of securing an endless flow between tradies to carry out work on our launch has been a wonderful experience.

While dealing with a family issue and unable to visit the yard during the work period, we never felt we did not know what was happening, as we were kept well informed throughout the duration.

To the staff and contractors who carried out the work

— THANK YOU VERY MUCH"
